I can remember no-one being excited that we got some no-name ( Ben Wallace) in the Grant Hill sign and trade deal. I trust Joe Dumars made the best decisions for the team on both counts. 1. Letting Ben go. 2. Signing Mohamed. We will just have to wait and see.

Personally I like Mohomad. IMO he's not quite as good defensively, but he is a lot better offensively. He's better at shooting free throws (who isn't) he's better at getting to the rim... He's bigger... and he seems to be more of a true Center. ESPN reported a power shift in the Eastern Conference and they had Chicago ranked higher than us now... IMO that is ridiculous... Chicago added a defensive C, and they can't score... I really don't think they're going to be much better... Without any more additions I think we're the #2 team in the East, second to Miami... If we can pick up some more bench players I think we can pass Miami... We need someone to D up Dwane... And we need a backup C that has some size... I'm comfortable with Mohamad starting... He tore us up two years ago when we were playing San An... I was happy to see him sit... I wanted Duncan in the game over that kid... That doesn't mean I think he's better than TD, but we certainly couldn't D him up, at least w/o a game plan...

I still hope we try to sign Pryzbilla, He is a good rebounder and shot blocker.
